DISCUSSION The most powerful and versatile Performa system ever created brings you increased system speed and enhanced communications performance. The Apple Macintosh Performa 6300CD computer uses a state-of-the-art PowerPC 603e processor running at 100 megahertz to deliver up to 50 percent higher performance than previous 603-based systems. The Performa 6300CD will meet your needs well into the future, not only with its leading-edge performance, but also with a 1.2 gigabyte hard drive Ð large enough to store applications and information for years to come. This affordable system includes multimedia features that are expensive add-ons with other computers. A quadruple-speed CD-ROM drive accesses CD-based data quickly and plays audio and video segments smoothly. Stereo 16-bit sound provides high-quality audio playback, while an audio-input port lets you record your own sounds. Adding advanced multimedia options is easy. You can plug in a video-input card, a video-output interface box, an internal TV tuner, and other optional devices. The Performa 6300CD also comes with special features for telephony. The high-speed (28.8 kilobits per second) modem works with the Apple PlainTalk microphone (included with the computer) and special software to let you use the computer as a speakerphone and an answering machine. The 6300CD is a complete, ready-to-use multimedia system. Packed in one box are the computer (with Mac OS 7.5.1 software already loaded), a color display, a keyboard, a mouse, an internal modem, and a microphone. Also included are more than a dozen home, education, and home-business programs, plus a collection of multimedia reference CDs.
